Love begins, when judgment ends

It is so easy to judge those that we think do not measure up to the standards we believe they should adhere to.

We are not God.  He will take the time that He needs too, with His children.  We are to love and not judge. After all, God was patient with us, right?

Everyone one of us, have messed up along the way, or should I say during our walk in the Lord.
Training to be a disciple will take some time, and  we were given that time,  we were given space and time as needed,  then we also should extend that courtesy to others.

John 15:17 (Jesus speaking)
These things I command you, that you love one another.

Romans 13:10
Love does no harm to a neighbor, therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.

1Corinthians 13:13
And now abide faith, hope, love, these three, but the greatest of these is love.

When we have a tendency to be judgmental, we should take a look back and remember from where we came from.

People who are judgmental are most likely walking with a prideful spirit, known as a religious spirit, they believe they know more than anyone else.

When love is expressed to a hurting soul, it will do more good, it will show that we understand and that we are there to help them with their insecurity. 

Ephesians 4:7
But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ's gift.

We all have been given grace by the Lord's gift to us.  Why not extend some of that grace, mercy and love, to one who has fallen, and feels unworthy and undeserving of anything good.

Beloved, check your love meter and see if it is full of God's unconditional love and grace, and mercy.
We love, because Jesus first loved us. We didn't deserve any grace or love, yet God extended it to us, by sacrificing Himself in our place.

Be kind and show the love of God and watch how it will change a person, and it will change you , and you will please your heavenly Father, because He will see His Son's nature being manifested in you.

God bless you
Jesus loves you

Love in Jesus
Joy

DOES IT MATTER WHO PREACHES THE GOSPEL, AS LONG AS THE GOSPEL IS PREACHED?

 G O S P E L= GOD'S OWN SON PROVIDED ETERNAL LIFE. This is the true gospel,  the good news!! What are we to conclude about this matter? Paul makes it clear, that whoever preaches Christ and the gospel, it doesn't matter, as long as the Gospel gets preached. Philippians 1:15-16 Some indeed preach Christ even from envy and strife, and some also from goodwill.  The former preach Christ from selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my chains, but the latter out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the Gospel. What then? Only that in everyway, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is preached; and in this I rejoice, yes and will rejoice. Beloved, there are all kinds of preachers out there, but their motives are not our business. Those that are preaching for all the wrong reasons, could later repent, and start preaching for the right reasons.  We have seen this through the years. We are to listen for the truth of God's word. I h...

JESUS IS NOT A GLORIFIED BUTLER, HE IS THE SON OF GOD.

SOME BELIEVERS THINK THAT JESUS IS A GLORIFIED BUTLER.  Whatever they ask for they will have, whether it is right or wrong. JESUS IS THE SON OF GOD!!  YOU ARE NOT TO COMMAND HIM,  YOU ARE TO ASK HIM, HONOR HIM, AND RESPECT HIM AND HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM.  I have heard some believers young in their faith and understanding, say that they have prayed for such a thing and God will give it to them. They are trusting in their faith, not their faith in God. (Works of the flesh, which is witchcraft) Witchcraft is attempting to manipulate your environment or circumstances. (SELF) Works of the flesh. Rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. (1Samuel 15:23) Galatians 5;19-20 NOW THE WORKS OF THE FLESH ARE EVIDENT, WHICH ARE: Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions , jealousies, outburst of wrath , selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, and revelries, ...

GOD'S LOVE LETTER TO HIS CHILDREN. PART 2

Read God's word and see how many times He chose to bless and not curse His people. God knows our every move and cares that we understand there is obedience to His word that will help us. God's word is a light unto our path.  Psalms 119:104-105 Through Your precepts I get understanding; therefore I hate every false way. Your word is a lamp to my feet, and a light to my path. God's word is rest for the weary, when we have not obeyed the word of God, we will become weary, anxious, and fearful, when we choose to do our own thing instead of what God tells us to do. Jesus loves us too much to leave us where He found us.  Praise God that he did find us searching for truth. Thy word is truth and Jesus is that word. So yes, there will be reminders for our spiritual growth that is needed. Will you squirm and try to fight the Holy Spirit? Yes, because the flesh always fights the Holy Spirit. Galatians 5:17 For the flesh lust against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and th...
